Chapter 233: Red Sleeves Add Fragrance
● Sure enough, a hint of surprise flashed in Xuan Shao's eyes: "How did you know?" ”
Sanniang smiled back at Xuan Shao: "Guess." //
Seeing Xuan Shao's helpless expression, Sanniang couldn't help but chuckle. didn't tease Xuan Shao anymore, so he told him about the woman he had seen catching snakes with his bare hands: "I remember that the people in southern Xinjiang, even if they are women, are not shy about insects and snakes. Because they are always in contact with each other in their daily lives, they have this conjecture. ”
Xuan Shao nodded: "That woman is indeed from Southern Xinjiang, because she is still useful, so I can't hand her over to the Wang family to deal with." ”
"As long as she doesn't come out to hurt people, it doesn't matter. I just don't know who is behind this woman...... Who is it? Sanniang asked tentatively.
"If it's inconvenient to say, that's okay." After thinking about it, Sanniang added that she guessed that what Xuan Shao did on weekdays might be extremely hidden, and if there was any professional code or something, she didn't want to embarrass Xuan Shao.
Xuan Shao glanced at Sanniang seriously, and said after a slight groan: "She should have something to do with the leader of Southern Xinjiang who was disposed of by the emperor more than ten years ago. ”
Sanniang frowned, if this is the case, then is Shui Yue's side also implicated with the former leader of Southern Xinjiang?
After thinking about it, Sanniang said, "Do you remember that I once asked you to help me pay attention to the movement over there in Shuiyue?" ”
Xuan Shao nodded: "I also asked after I came back, and there was no movement over there." ”
Sanniang's brows furrowed even tighter when she heard this: "I suspect that Shuiyue's people are also involved in Southern Xinjiang."
Xuan Shao raised his eyebrows: "What do you say?" ”
Sanniang told Xuan Shao what happened four years ago, and explained her suspicions, Xuan Shao listened carefully, with thoughtful eyes in her eyes.
"I haven't been back for a few years, and this line has always been stared at by others. There is some truth in what you say, and I will send someone in to investigate it carefully. ”
Sanniang nodded, and said, "Master Xuan came so late today, but what's the matter?" ”
Xuan Shao's fingers tapped on the bookcase, and Sanniang subconsciously looked at his hands, which were slender and neat, and the bone joints were not very prominent, not only did they have the roughness of a person who practiced martial arts, but they were very beautiful, but they gave people a quite powerful feeling.
Sanniang played the piano in her previous life, and she also had a pair of slender and delicate hands, her piano teacher was a middle-aged man, although he was almost half a hundred years old, and his face was also frosty, but those hands were still as good-looking as a young man. Sanniang once thought it was the most beautiful hand she had ever seen. //
"I have something I want to ask Miss San for help."
Sanniang took her eyes away from Xuan Shao's fingers, a little surprised: "What can I help Xuan Gongzi?" ”
Xuan Shao took out a rolled piece of paper from his cuff, about the size of two A4 sheets of paper placed side by side. He spread it out and placed it on the bookcase. Because it is rolled up at the beginning, it is not flat on the table. Sanniang walked over, picked up the Shoushan white hibiscus fish-pattern paperweight next to the bookcase, and gently placed it on the paper that looked quite new, and pressed it.
Sanniang lowered her head and saw that it was a simple map, which seemed to be hastily drawn with the lines on it and those detailed or simple markings, which reminded Sanniang of the sketch of the map that Xuan Shao gave her four years ago.
"This is what I drew from memory, and it's not very accurate, so I'd like to ask you to help me draw the same picture you drew for me last time."
Xuan Shao lowered his head and looked at Sanniang, he was tall, and from his point of view, he could see the top of Sanniang's head, as well as the slender curly eyelashes that kept trembling under the slightly shaking light shadow because of the blinking of his eyes, such Sanniang gave people a feeling of weakness and helplessness, and people couldn't help but want to protect her behind him. Xuan Shao felt that the strange feeling in his heart came out again.
Sanniang didn't pay attention to Xuan Shao, only pressed the side that was not pressed by the paperweight with her fingers, and frowned and looked carefully.
"This picture is too sketchy, and it may be difficult to draw it in such detail." Sanniang pondered for a moment and looked up at Xuan Shao, not wanting to pretend to be the werewolf Xuan Shao's eyes as deep as a cold pool, Sanniang couldn't help but be stunned.
Xuan Shao turned his gaze back to the map without a trace, and said lightly: "I have it all in my mind, I said you draw."
Sanniang tilted her head and said uncertainly: "You mean you want to watch me draw?" ”
Xuan Shao's gaze did not turn back from the map: "This map is very important, I don't worry about handing it over to someone who is not familiar with it, originally there are people around me who can draw it, but it's just ······ He was seriously injured on his last mission. So I can only trouble Miss Three. ”
Sanniang rolled her eyes, pursed her lips and smiled: "That's not a problem, not to mention that there is also Xuan Gongzi to hand the pen and polish the ink, I have nothing to complain about." ”
Xuan Shao raised his head in amazement, and when he saw the sly in Sanniang's eyes, Xuan Shao's eyes were filled with a smile, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised: "Okay." ”
This time it was Sanniang's turn to be stunned, looking at Xuan Shao's smile with a strange charm in the candlelight, Sanniang thought: Forget it, I am joking, is it possible that this dead demon is also joking!
"This picture is only a small part of it, not the whole picture, so I'm afraid that the third lady won't be able to finish it in a day or two."
The amount of work is large, Sanniang didn't say more, found a piece of paper of the right size and spread it on the bookcase, and turned over the boxes and cabinets to take out the charcoal, paint, and tools used to draw maps, and put a table full of them.
Xuan Shao watched with interest on the side, and asked a word or two for those who didn't know the use.
Sanniang had just slept and felt a little sleepy when she got up, but now she feels more and more energetic.
Xuan Shao stood beside Sanniang, watching her make a draft, dictating, and occasionally thinking with his eyes down. Sanniang was not used to this way of drawing drawings only based on other people's dictation, but Xuan Shao was very detailed, and Sanniang could be explained in time if he didn't understand, so after half an hour, Sanniang was more and more handy.
When Sanniang finished drawing the manuscript, it was already the end of the day.
Sanniang put down the charcoal, exhaled, and gently moved her wrist.
"It's done."
Xuan Shao looked at the picture, then looked at Sanniang and smiled: "I'll help you grind the ink." As he spoke, he really did the work of a scholar.
Sanniang blinked: "Master Xuan, I'm just joking, you should stand on the side." ”
Xuan Shao was focused on the things in his hands and was noncommittal.
Sanniang had the urge to roll her eyes helplessly, but thinking that this was a very unsightly thing in the boudoir lady, she tried to hold it back.
Forget it, he can do whatever he likes. She also knew that many people in those high-ranking families looked glamorous and tight, but there were many quirks.
For example, there are those who like to steal women's belly pockets, and those who like to play M, Xuan Shao just likes to play the little scholar, Sanniang thought maliciously.
The two of them painted one and handed the pen, and they also had a tacit understanding.
Bai Ying came in halfway to take a look, but she saw some weird pictures in the study, but four words came to mind: red sleeves add fragrance. It's just this red-sleeved······
Bai Ying glanced at Xuan Shao's more and more perfect side face under the shadow of the lamp, the corners of her mouth twitched unconsciously, and she retreated.
When it was almost dawn, I finally finished this one.
"It's ······ The Wushui area in southern Xinjiang? Sanniang and Xuan Shao stood at the table together and looked at the results of the two of them who had been busy all night, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in their minds.
Xuan Shao looked at Sanniang in surprise: "How did you find out?" ”
Sanniang unconsciously reached out and rubbed the corners of her eyes, and said with a smile: "I have read some books about southern Xinjiang, and there is a map of the territory in the outer study of the Wang family. Although this one of yours is a small map of a certain place, the direction of the mountains and rivers is consistent with that of Wushui in southern Xinjiang. ”
Xuan Shao looked at Sanniang appreciatively, but when he saw the bloodshot in her eyes, Xuan Shao's brows furrowed tightly.
Sanniang saw that the ink on the drawing was dry, so she helped Xuan Shao put it away and handed it over.
"It's okay to go, let's continue tonight."
Xuan Shao silently took the picture in Sanniang's hand, and the fingers of the two accidentally touched it, and the strange feeling in Xuan Shao's heart became more and more obvious. Sanniang also felt that her heartbeat was a little strange, but she had always been able to pretend, and naturally her expression was not revealed.
"You have a good rest tonight, and I'll come back tomorrow." Xuan Shao looked at Sanniang, her voice was still cold, but the warmth in it Sanniang did not ignore it.
"Aren't you in a hurry?" Although Sanniang felt that she needed to rest, Xuan Shao was in such a hurry to find her to paint, she must be very anxious to ask for it, if she was delayed, I don't know if it would be a mistake.
Xuan Shao put away the drawings, shook his head and said, "I'm just afraid that I'm afraid of forgetting and I'm in a hurry to draw them, but I can draw them myself first, and when the time comes, it will be easier for you to draw." ”
Sanniang thought that this was also a good idea, so she agreed.
Xuan Shao glanced at Sanniang again: "You go to sleep." As he spoke, he turned around and walked to the window, Sanniang only felt that there was a flower in front of him, and before he could see how he moved, Xuanshao had already disappeared.
Sanniang blinked, and finally couldn't help but roll her eyes when no one was around: "Sure enough, it's a demon!" ”
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Sanniang knew that it was Bai Ying who heard the movement coming from the side of the screen, so she said, "Bai Ying, I'll sleep for a while, and when the time comes, you will call me to get up." ”
Bai Ying walked in, looked around, and saw that Xuan Shao was no longer a figure, she was no longer surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward to put away the things on the bookcase: "Miss, you can sleep at ease, the slave is watching." ”
Sanniang walked to the side of the bed and said, "Wait a while, you let Bai Zhi and them take over from you, you can rest well during the day, and you don't have to wait." "To be continued.
